Why is potassium iodide used in iodometric titrations instead of sodium iodide?

I would guess that this is so because of potassium's mass, being much more than, sodium's molar mass per ion. So can sodium iodide be used instead of potassium iodide? Perhaps, but maybe not to the same level effectiveness. Potassium molecules have been known to dissolve better than sodium molecules. One example is Potassium Chloride and Sodium Chloride thanks


Which is more reactive sodium or lithium or potassium?

K; Potassium


Is potassium more or less active than sodium?

Potassium is more reactive than sodium


What is the molecular mass of sodium fluoride?

Sodium has a relative atomic mass of 22,989 769 28(2) g/mole. Fluorine has a relative atomic mass of 18,998 403 2 (2) g/mole. Sodium fluoride (NaF) = 22,989 769 28 + 18,998 403 2 = 41,988 172 48 g/mole. NaF is an ionic compound which exists as crystal lattice therefore the term FORMULA MASS is more accurate as compare to MOLECULAR MASS


What weighs more one mole of oxygen or one mole of sodium?

One atom of sodium weighs more than one atom of oxygen. Thus, one mole of sodium weighs more than one mole of oxygen.


What is the effect of decreasing the number of sodium potassium pumps?

When number of sodium-potassium pump decreased, transport of Na takes little more time. Less number of sodium-potassium more time for transport

Case to case basis. In my case diclofenac potassium is more powerful than diclofenac sodium.


Are the properties of sodium Na more like the properties of lithium or magnesium?

Na is chemically more like Li than Mg, only physically (measurements, mass) it looks more like Mg


Why is sodium preferred over potassium in industrial applications?

The question isn't very specific (preferred for what?!), but sodium metal is less reactive than potassium. It is also slightly more abundant than potassium on Earth.


Sodium is prefered over potassium in industrial applications because?

Sodium is produced more economically and thus is much lower cost than potassium. Sodium is also slightly easier to handle. Both are used extensively in industry but sodium metal is less reactive than potassium metal.
